You did see my post that the article also includes a disclaimer that it’s SATIRE? The poster of the article neglected to include that tidbit of information.

. I had to stop reading it. It’s incredibly hard to evade reality when you’re reading that site. Even for us journalists.”
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I thought it was for real until I came to this:

“..... I had to stop reading it. It’s incredibly hard to evade reality when you’re reading that site. Even for us journalists.”

“Even for us journalists”?....Very good! :-)

Satire is truth stretched a little bit!

In my opinion, the Brown Shirt website AttackWatch would have been a favorite of Hitler and Goebbel’s.

Correction Ping.................

Sorry, CB. I didn't, however, this isn't far-fetched! I'm pinging the list because our Resident, B.0. for Bending 0ver, is still a narcissist child who needs constant adulation, even if this is satire.

CB, thanks for the correction.

LOL No kidding, but if people don’t realize it’s satire and make comments about it in other threads their credibility goes into the crapper.

In the bazaro world we live in today it’s getting more difficult to tell which is which. We need to be really careful with satire any more because I have seen too many making comments based on articles which were satire not realizing. Makes them not look credible.

“Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.”

“…you do what you can with what you have and clothe it with moral arguments.”

- Saul Alinsky, Rules for Radicals

Rule #5......Learn it, use it, live it, breathe it because the other side has it down to a science.

It almost seemed unnecessary to write about the fifth rule because this President and his Administration have used it ad nauseum to the point where a discussion of this tactic almost seemed superfluous, but I will at least hit a few high points, and then move on to the rest of the tactics.

If you want to understand the role that ridicule plays in the Alinsky method, and particularly in the way in which the Obama Administration uses Alinsky, you need look no further than Sarah Palin. From the moment that she was introduced as John McCain’s running mate the Alinsky machine within Obama’s campaign flew into action at full speed to find ways to mock, denigrate, and ridicule her. Obama’s campaign dispatched a slew of vultures to descend on Alaska in an effort to dig dirt, stir trouble, and uncover any malcontent who might have the tiniest bit of salacious information on the Governor.
